I have had dreams like this, but I wouldn’t say they were nightmares.  I see what you mean however: it would depend on who owned your ass.

Ja, of course that is a risk with Alcor or any future cryonics company.  The problem I see is that the company depends on people signing up to cover their current expenses.  If the whole notion goes out of style and proles stop signing up, global warming is coming to the Alcor facility.
